iPhone 14 Pro with IMEI from 2007

I just bought a used iPhone 14Pro, the check coverage with the EMEI shows that it was bought on January 1, 2007, is this possible?

No, but it is an indication that the phone was likely refurbished at a facility that was not approved by Apple, so it may or may not contain genuine Apple parts.


No Apple warranty of course on this phone, unless the seller is offering one on their own.

This is likely a refurbished iPhone. Refurbished iPhones not refurbished by apple will have a warranty date in the past as they have no warranty with Apple. Open Settings > General > About > Model - does the model start with a number, like 3 or 5? If yes, the phone you purchased is refurbished.


Keep in mind iPhone 14 Pro was discontinued by Apple in September 2023, almost 2 years ago. You could NOT have purchased a new iPhone 14 Pro at this time from virtually anyone.
